There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

It's not meant to be clicked on like an ordinary link, David. You need to copy the link and paste it into the iTunes "subscribe to podcast" thingie (in Windows, it's under "advanced").

Aha! I knew you'd correct my stupidity.
eta: Sweet! It's downloading now.
Question for the hive mind (or perhaps for that portion of the hive mind who occasionally drops by here & would have special insight into this question & whom I would ask directly except I can't find her email anymore.) A co-worker wanted to know if I remembered a certain This American Life episode. I don't, but maybe one of you will. You can answer me here or at the profile address. Thanks.
Do you remember this episode, I can't seem to find it: It was about memory and a man who is an artist at the Chelsea Hotel, and he tells a story about a memory he has of him and his girlfriend who are in a field and see a horse. He breaks up with her and she dies in a fire and the rest of his life he painted horses without realizing that it was hearkening back to that moment. It is a convoluted synopsis but if you do remember please let me know.
It's a bit later than Theo's compilation, but emusic has one called The Humphrey Bogart Era with a buncha songs mostly from the early forties, plus Bogie soundbites between tracks. Most of the names will be familiar, even if you don't know their music. Pick hit, apropos of our origins: "Ill Wind" sung here by Lena Horne, but perhaps better known in these parts as the song Darla sang at Caritas so Lorne could read her ("The Trial" Angel S2).
Joe - I searched the archive at TAL for "memory" or "horse" and couldn't find anything close to what your friend is looking for.
Getting deaf teens to sing Bach is:
(a) Exploitative and voyeuristic.
(b) Culturally inclusive and respectful.
(c) A celebration of failure and chaos.
(d) A celebration of determination and hope.
(e) Art.
As any good test-taker knows, once you're pretty sure that certain answers can't be right, you simply settle for whatever's left.
Art it is.
Just found out the BF scored tickets to see Springsteen and the Seeger Sessions band on Monday night. Brooooooooooooce!
So.Jealous.

Think they'll do "Like A Rock" or "Against the Wind"?
You're mean, Corwood.
